  Abstract/
Summary
Sustainable product development has risen to be a concern of many product manufacturers in recent years. Manufacturers are adopting the life cycle approach in managing the development of products and they are in favour of closing the product life cycle loop by incorporating the end of life stage into the design process. With this, there is the urgency to fill up the knowledge gap between the end-of-life stage and design stage. More tools and methodologies for Design for End-of Life (DfEoL) are needed to assist designers to design products with better end-of-life performance. In this paper, a novel methodology for capturing, representing, classifying, retaining and analyzing the knowledge from the end-of-life stage to be made available for the designers is proposed. An overall end-of-life index for a design will be elaborated.
